Guys will be guys, and girls are just plain nice to look at. 🙂 The boys are about to experience “girl power” to the max and the beginning of a great friendship will begin. I re-drew the first panel a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

…or how to eat peanut butter and celery for a month. Which I did in May of 1977 as I ran out of money and jobs. In May of 1977, the last month of my sophomore year and the first year[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Bud and Jeff set up for their first gig at the Ground Round Grill and Bar. In many areas of the USA, the Ground Round helped launch many a career of very unsucessful musicians. Besides playing in a balcony, there[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The boys are in the manager’s office hoping for a full-time gig playing at the Ground Round, but end up making money anyway. Look for the subtle exchange Jeff makes! 🙂
Why is Bud on the bald headed guy’s back? Why is Lorraine so forlorn? All this and more in today’s exciting “leap day” comic! Rapscallion! Look it up! 🙂 Rolls right off the tongue, doesn’t it? Well, they say it’s[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today here in northern Illinois it is a cold, rainy day. We had a slight break yesterday with temps in the low 50s (at like 8:00pm too, a tad weird) but for the most part it’s been very gray and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s comic gave me hell. As a practice, I script ahead as many comics as is feasible. Sometimes as many as 15 ro 20 strips are scripted waiting to be drawn in sequence. Today’s comic came to life and I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
A couple random comics (maybe a few) and I’ll start up a new story arc. It’s Friday and been an interesting week. My 21 year old lives in a really nice, quiet apartment complex that is well run, clean, nicely[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I love Quick Draw McGraw as it is the first cartoon I can actually remember watching back in like 1960/61 on a B&W TV and I thought having him make fun of the “Smokey and the Bandit” soundtrack was funny[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s entry has been inspired by the ENORMOUS potholes in the roads of northern Illinois this winter. We’ve had a lot of snow, thus a lot of plowing and salt being put down, but these things are ridiculous!! It is[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
There’s been a trend lately in TV commercials here in the USA to feature squirrels as the comedic element. The screaming squirrel in the Super Bowl spot is a perfect example. A lot of comics have featured angry squirrels and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I told you about how squirrels were in vogue lately, well, here’s to our fat, friendly friends the frogs. Today’s comic starts off a 3 part story arc that I can expand if I think it’s going well. Also, today’s[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Taking the comic even deeper into “cartoonland” today’s entry reveals what started on Wednesday. I’m enjoying this story arc a lot as I think it shows 1977 is just more then stoner/pot/music jokes and can have some real fun. At[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Bud’s transformation into a girl lands him over at Lorraine and Robyn’s place. In light of today’s comic, here’s a story for you. : Ever watch a woman golf? Where do those arms go? Over? Under? True golfing story from[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Hectic schedule of late so no stories today except that the comic’s title is pulled from a 1971 Steppenwolf album of the same name. The only good thing about the album was the gatefold image of a car built to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Bud’s trying to transform back into a guy and today’s comic starts that story arc off. The tucking the frog into Bud’s boobs is a big nod of the hat to Nate Piekos and his comic “Atland.” One of the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s comic is a bit extra: it’s larger than the usual comic, it’s a cliffhanger and it features Bud getting felt up by a frog. This is part 1 of 2 of Bud’s attempt to transform back into a guy.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
IÂ worked on some tweaks for the characters over the weekend, mostly their hairstyles. I am not happy with Robyn’s at the moment. Most are posted here. I do occasional drawings that are posted only at my deviantART account which is[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
